Study summary

This is an open-label, multi-center, fixed sequence study in subjects with BRAF V600 mutation positive tumors. Subjects will receive single oral doses of 10 milligram (mg) of rosuvastatin and 3 mg of midazolam in the morning of Day 1 (alone), Day 8 (with first dose of dabrafenib 150 mg), and Day 22 (during repeat dose dabrafenib 150 mg twice daily [BID]). Dabrafenib 150 mg BID will be administered from Day 8 to Day 23. Blood samples for PK analysis will be obtained over 32 hours post-dose on Day 1, Day 8, and Day 22. The last dose of dabrafenib will be taken in the morning of Day 23 and the last blood sample in the evening of Day 23. Subjects will be considered to have completed the study once the 32 hour PK sample has been collected on Day 23. Once they have completed the study, eligible subjects may have the option to enter study BRF114144, an open-label roll-over study of dabrafenib (no follow-up visit required) and continue receiving dabrafenib.

Exclusion Criteria:

Exception: (a) Subjects who have been successfully treated and are disease-free for 5 years, (b) a history of completely resected non-melanoma skin cancer, (c) successfully treated in situ carcinoma, (d) chronic lymphocytic leukemia in stable remission, or (e) indolent prostate cancer (definition: clinical stage T1 or T2a, Gleason score \<=6, and prostate-specific antigen \<10 nanogram per milliliter) requiring no or only anti-hormonal therapy, are eligible. Note: Prospective RAS testing is not required. However, if the results of previous RAS testing are known, they must be used in assessing eligibility.

  • Any serious and/or unstable pre-existing medical, psychiatric disorder or other conditions that could interfere with subject's safety, obtaining informed consent or compliance to the study procedures.
  • Current use of therapeutic warfarin. NOTE: Low molecular weight heparin and prophylactic low-dose warfarin are permitted
  • Any prohibited medication(s) or herbal preparation as described in the protocol or requires any of these medications during the study.
  • Have a known immediate or delayed hypersensitivity reaction or idiosyncrasy to drugs chemically related to dabrafenib, rosuvastatin, and midazolam, or excipients that contraindicate their participation; or have an allergy to cherries.
  • Pregnant or nursing females.
  • A history or evidence of cardiovascular risk including any of the following:
  • A QT interval corrected for heart rate using the Bazett's formula (QTcB) >=480 millisecond (msec);
  • A history or evidence of current clinically significant uncontrolled arrhythmias;
  • A history of acute coronary syndromes (including myocardial infarction or unstable angina), coronary angioplasty, or stenting within 6 months prior to randomization
  • A history or evidence of current >=Class II congestive heart failure as defined by the New York Heart Association (NYHA) guidelines
  • Abnormal cardiac valve morphology (>=grade 2) documented by echocardiogram (subjects with grade 1 abnormalities [i.e., mild regurgitation/stenosis] can be entered on study). Subjects with moderate valvular thickening should not be entered on study.
  • Patients with intra-cardiac defibrillators
  • Presence of active GI disease or other condition (e.g., small bowel or large bowel resection) that will interfere significantly with the absorption of drugs. If clarification is needed as to whether a condition will significantly affect absorption of drugs, contact the GSK Medical Monitor.
  • Subjects with COPD or subjects with increased risk of respiratory depression
  • Subjects with narrow angle glaucoma
  • A history of known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), Hepatitis B Virus, or Hepatitis C Virus infection.
  • Subjects with brain metastases are excluded if their brain metastases are: Symptomatic; Treated (surgery, radiation therapy) but not clinically and radiographically stable one month after local therapy, OR; Asymptomatic and untreated but > 1 cm in the longest dimension. Subjects with small (\<= 1 cm in the longest dimension), asymptomatic brain metastases that do not need immediate local therapy can be enrolled. Subjects on a stable dose of corticosteroids for more than one month, or those who have been off corticosteroids for at least 2 weeks can be enrolled. Subjects must also be off of enzyme-inducing anticonvulsants for more than 4 weeks.

    Time frame: Screening, Day 1, Day 22 and Follow-up

  5. Changes in vital sign measurements to access safety
